AI: What this vote decides Written by AI from the official text — check the source
Parliament adopted its position on a proposed regulation to speed up the granting of permits for defence readiness projects.
This is Parliament's first reading position, and it usually needs to agree with the Council before the law is final.
Parliament calls on the Commission to refer the matter to Parliament again if it replaces, substantially amends or intends to substantially amend its proposal.
Parliament instructs its President to forward its position to the Council, the Commission and the national parliaments.
AI: The text in short Written by AI from the official text — check the source
Parliament's amended version of the Commission proposal for a regulation on accelerating permit-granting for defence readiness projects. It sets a 50-working-day limit for permit decisions, allows limited extensions, and requires each member state to set up a single point of contact.
